Huo Cenji remembered very clearly that when he fell into the canyon and was injured, he still refused to believe that it was Tang Yu who was behind the attack.
Perhaps Tang Yu didn't know the specific situation, or perhaps someone deliberately spread false information to mislead Tang Yu... In short, no matter what, he really didn't want to believe it.
It was not until his exhausted subordinates found this place and told him that Tang Yu could not wait to take power into his own hands after he left that Huo Cenji was forced to accept the reality with a gloomy face.
The frail little emperor, whom he always felt pity for, had actually harbored murderous intentions towards him for a long time, and even used himself as bait to lure him step by step into his current desperate situation.
Oh, when he was assisting Tang Yu in his imperial career, he didn't even know that Tang Yu had such patience in his bones. Not only could he pretend to whisper to him and express his deep affection, he could even make a promise to be with him alone in this life.
Otherwise... otherwise, why would he be so resolute and take this path even if it meant being despised by the whole world?
What's funny is that when he was in such a state of disgrace and no longer had any honor, Tang Yu actually agreed to the election.
Beautiful women were sent into the palace in droves, and those who wanted to curry favor with the emperor even selected many men who looked like beautiful women and sent them into the palace in order to please the emperor.
Haha, when Huo Cenji heard the news, the last bit of hope in his heart was completely extinguished like a weak flame.
He even thought with malicious hatred—
"With Tang Yu's body, even if he had three thousand beauties in his harem, he would be powerless."
Could it be that those people would be like me before, only allowing Tang Yu to have two brief periods in order to prevent him from wasting too much energy, and then forcefully asking Tang Yu to rest?
Even though he was overwhelmed by lust, he still considered Tang Yu's body first.
I'm afraid that those people in the harem will cling to Tang Yu all night long in order to conceive a dragon heir as soon as possible?
Oh.
Inadvertently recalling past memories, Huo Cenji's face turned cold, his eyes darkened, and although the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, it didn't look like a smile at all. Instead, it looked like -
Sulking?
Liu Ziqing secretly glanced at Huo Cenji, and when he saw Huo Cenji tightly gripping the armrest of the white jade chair with his five fingers, alarm bells rang in his heart, so he immediately lowered his head to look at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose.
This... He was finding it increasingly difficult to understand the Regent.
But what Liu Ziqing can be sure of is——
I'm afraid that His Highness will not take action against the little emperor for the time being.
After a while, Huo Cenji probably realized that he shouldn't show such emotions at this moment, so he roughly and deliberately rubbed that memory into his mind, and finally waved at Liu Ziqing, signaling him to go out.
Why ask so many questions? Didn’t Liu Ziqing ask the imperial physician to see Tang Yu?
In short, Tang Yu can't die.
Liu Ziqing looked at Huo Cenji's gesture, nodded in understanding, and turned to leave. However, when he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something, so he turned around and said hesitantly:
"Your Highness, I just took the Emperor's pulse and found that his body is already weak. If he is not taken good care of, I am afraid that his condition will become more and more serious."
"What does it have to do with me?"
Huo Cenji frowned and asked back expressionlessly.
If he was really cruel, Tang Yu would probably not be lying comfortably in the bedroom now, but in a dark and damp dungeon.
He would not let Liu Ziqing, the master doctor, go to see Tang Yu in person.
However, since Liu Ziqing spoke about this matter personally, it means that Tang Yu's situation is indeed quite bad.
So after he asked in a cold tone, he asked again impatiently:
"Are you bringing this up to remind this king?"
Liu Ziqing: "...Hmm?"
No! He didn't!
He was just stating the facts.
Liu Ziqing was about to open his mouth to argue when he saw the Regent sigh and reluctantly said:
"Well, if something really happens to him, there will always be people who will pin the blame on me. In that case, you can go see him again. If he needs any medicine, let those imperial doctors find a way to prepare it."
Liu Ziqing: “…Yes.”
Until he walked out the door, he had no idea how things had developed to this point.
In the end, after much thought, he could only blame it all on the word "talkativeness".
If he had known this earlier, he would not have mentioned the little emperor's physical condition. In this way, the subsequent events would not have happened.
But sometimes something happens for no reason, just like what just happened -
At the moment he was about to step out the door, the pale face of the little emperor suddenly flashed through his mind.
That's why he said those words as if possessed by a ghost.
*
When the last ray of light was blocked out, Huo Cenji slowly leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and chuckled to himself.
Physical deficiency...
It seems that Tang Yu really lived a very comfortable life when I was away.
Suddenly, a fire rose in Huo Cenji's heart. He opened his eyes, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
He lowered his eyes and silently turned the ring on his hand, and finally called his subordinates in softly.
"you……"
After giving a few simple instructions, his subordinates looked up at him in surprise.
"What? Do you have any objections?" Huo Cenji looked at his subordinates calmly, as if he didn't think there was anything strange about what he had just said.
He just wanted to know more clearly.
Not everyone wants to die in obscurity.
He also wanted to know whether Tang Yu's helplessness on the bed during those gentle and passionate nights was directed only at him or whether he did it on purpose.
If it were as he thought...
Then his pity would be ridiculous.
